1974 FORD BRONCO 4X4.
Recent restoration…Great looking…Perfect running…Classy daily driver. This Bronco turns heads!
Interior/Exterior
Good frame off restoration but certainly not perfect, the paint is called “Rescue Green” was laid on nicely but I feel the body could have been blocked out a little better. Rocker panels and Interior floor-pans were replaced like most vintage Broncos and then sprayed with herculiner throughout the entire bed.
Front seats were donated from a modern vehicle so they’re fully adjustable with the rear bench being custom designed to complement the front with matching material. Door panels are custom to match seats. 6 Point roll cage with windshield support brackets. Dakota Digital gauge system looks and performs awesome. The Glove box door was modified so it would open due to the roll bar being mounted in front of it, a common problem with a 6 point roll cage. Leather wrapped Lecarra 14 inch steering wheel. All gauges and accessories function as they should.
All window felt and marker lens were replaced, headlights were upgraded with the H4 conversion kit.
Kayline soft-top is “Like New” condition, garage kept no fading or yellowing plastic, Sorry NO HARD TOP comes with this beautiful Bronco.
Running Gear
Rebuilt 302, not bored or cam’d out. Stock 2-barrel carb, Very clean, runs great with lots of power. Rebuilt C4 automatic transmission with Dana 20 transfer case, Dana 44 disc brake front axle and heavy duty ford 9 inch rear. New Duralast alternator, E3 spark plugs, Optima battery, and all new ignition components. Dual Shocks all around and bushings are from Duff’s, 3.5 inch suspension is from Wild Horses with variable rate front coils and 11 pack soft ride rear leaf springs. New Power brake booster, Power steering pump was upgraded to the GM model. New U-joints. 23 gal fuel tank with adjustable sending unit.
New 33 x 12.5 x 15 BF Goodrich All Terrain KO2 tires on “OK” steely rims (nothing fancy there)

Facelifted Ford Focus caught testing in the cold
Wed, 18 Dec 2013It's that time in the life of the Ford Focus to get a little work done - a nip-tuck here, some Botox there. Yes, Ford is testing a facelifted version of its global C-segment entry, which first hit markets in Europe and North America in May 2011.
Like the touchup on the Fiesta, expect Ford's gaping grille to make its first appearance on the Focus. Our spy photographers point out that this is likely to be a more comprehensive makeover than previous spy shots suggested, based on the additional camouflage seen here on the front and rear ends of this five-door model. New head and taillights are also likely in order, as are changes to the front and rear fascia.
The interior was also snapped and features a cleaner design with a larger central display. Other than that, it looks like some buttons have been changed, making us think most of the Focus' updates are limited to the exterior.
Ford cranks up '32 Ford body production
Tue, 14 Jan 2014If you're going to build your own hot rod, you'll want to start with a '32 Ford 5-Window Coupe. Favored by American servicemen returning from World War II, the '32 Ford remains the very icon of the hot rod to this day. The trouble is there were only so many of them made in the first place, and finding one today can be a challenge. That's where reproduction models come in.
The aftermarket is replete with companies that will sell you a fiberglass body in the form of a '32 Ford coupe, but quality can be hit or miss. So to help meet demand among hot rod builders and enthusiasts, Ford has teamed up with United Pacific Industries to offer officially licensed body shells.
Announced at the SEMA show in November, the '32 Ford 5-Window Coupe body is made from stamped steel according to original specifications from original machinery where possible or reproduced machinery built to the same original specifications where necessary. The bodies are ready to accept vintage powertrains or crate motors from the Ford Racing catalog, and join the 9,000 other parts offered in the Ford Component Sales catalog - including similar reproduction bodies available for the 1965-70 Mustang and 1940 Ford Coupe. From there, the proverbial sky's the limit.
Watch these Australian Ford and Holden muscle cars duke it out
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Australia's Motoring has put together a little video on two of the great performance vehicles available down under - the Holden VF Commodore HSV GTS and the Ford Falcon FPV GT R-Spec. And while both FPV and the Falcon might be on their way out, there's still plenty of time for a little head-to-head comparison between the two.
The cars aren't all that well evenly matched, though. The Ford boasts a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8, which the Aussies measure out at 449 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. The HSV, though, with its Corvette-derived, 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 is just too powerful - 576 hp and 545 lb-ft of torque.
Predictably, it doesn't end too well for the Ford. As the guys from Motoring point out, the new VF Commodore is just too new and too good, with its extra power and its adaptive dampers (GM's excellent MagnaRide). Interestingly, Motoring did point out that the Holden's electric steering is better than the Ford's hydraulic steering, which is a lot like a Porsche purist saying they prefer water-cooled engines to air cooled.
